Rapids and Earthquakes Clash in Highly Anticipated MLS Match: Predictions, Injuries, and What to Expect.

The San Jose Earthquakes and the Colorado Rapids will face off in Commerce City, Colorado on Saturday at 9:30 p.m. EDT. The betting line from BETMGM SPORTSBOOK has Colorado as the favorite at -132, San Jose at +312, and the draw at +293, with an over/under of 2.5 goals.

The Rapids are currently fourth in the Western Conference with a record of 5-3-3. They have a solid record against Western Conference opponents, winning four out of their six games so far this season. In their last match against New York City FC, they won 2-0 and scored two goals in that game. When scoring two goals or more, they are unbeatable with a record of three wins out of three games.

On the other hand, the Earthquakes are struggling to keep up with Western Conference opponents with a record of 2-8-1. They have yet to win a game where they score only one goal, losing all four matches played so far this season. However, they have been performing well recently and managed to score two goals in their last match against LA Galaxy despite losing the game 4-1.

This will be the second meeting between these two teams this season, with Colorado winning the previous game 3-0 back in April. Rafael Navarro has been instrumental in Rapids’ attack this season with five goals and one assist under his belt so far. Meanwhile, Jeremy Ebobisse has been leading Earthquakes’ offense with three goals after eight games played. Amahl Pellegrino has also chipped in with two goals in his last ten games for San Jose.

In terms of injuries, both teams are likely to miss several key players due to injuries or suspensions before Saturday’s game is played out. The Rapids may be without Sam Vines, Daniel Chacon, Lalas Abubakar, Jonathan Lewis, Jasper Loffelsend, and Connor Ronan among others who are nursing injuries or recovering from COVID-19 protocols following positive tests for COVID-19 by members of their squad earlier this week.
